Truth Consciousness

She carries mountains on her shoulders.
But one day, she will realise she can break the mountains into tiny rocks and crush them into sand.
And then she will hold out her hands and watch those mountains slip through her fingers.
And she will sigh.
She will be free of the weight,
but her shoulders will always ache.
They will always hurt a little.
And yet…
that ache will serve as a constant reminder
of the time she moved mountains.
And reduced them
to dust.

"Life rarely follows the straight path we imagine. It’s filled with unexpected turns, highs and lows, moments of doubt, and moments of clarity.
But it’s in these twists and turns that we find growth. Each detour teaches us something we might never have learned on a straight line.
The ups fill us with joy and remind us of our strength, while the downs, though challenging, shape our resilience and deepen our wisdom.
The path may not always make sense as you walk it, but trust that every step, every curve, is leading you to where you’re meant to be.
